California Family Law
Full-service family law firm in Sacramento Attorney Appelsmith has more than 20 years of experience serving families in Sacramento. We provide legal services across a wide spectrum of areas, including:
Adoption
Alimony
Child custody and visitation Child support Both parents share the responsibility of raising a child. We help ensure your child receives the financial support required for a healthy, happy upbringing. Child support modification and enforcement Child support payments remain the same unless and until the court modifies the child support order. If either parent experiences a significant change in financial circumstances, we can guide you through the proper legal procedures to modify your child support payments accordingly. Divorce Throughout your divorce, we stand by you. We accompany you through mediation or litigation, depending on which is likely to obtain the best possible results for you — including fair distribution of assets, division of the marital home, child support payments and parenting plans. Mediation Mediation puts the decisions in your hands and can often provide more expedient, cost-effective and predictable results than a trial. We can help you obtain the divorce settlement that best meets your individual circumstances and needs using mediation. Pre- and post-nuptial agreements An appropriate relationship agreement can strengthen trust and prevent misunderstandings that can eventually lead to marital conflict and even divorce. We expect the unexpected and draft premarital agreements that protect both spouses’ interests and that can provide guidance and alleviate stress, should you ever divorce.
